OUTLOOK: This should be a very competitive match, especially since LSU snapped No. 3 Florida's 57-game SEC regular-season winning streak Friday. Granted, the Tigers lost 3-1, but their 32-30 win in game one marked the first time in 19 regular-season SEC matches that a team has taken a game from Florida. LSU coach Fran Flory said she thought the Tigers could have pushed the Gators to five games, but she said her team's ball control broke down as a result of Florida's tough serving. LSU hit only .058 for the match (.163 in game one), but the Tigers held the Gators to a .143 hitting percentage in game one. Cara Causey had three of LSU's five blocks in game one. Kyra Lancon and Jennifer Hampton led the Tigers with 11 kills apiece.

Hampton leads the team with 234 kills (.210 hitting percentage), while Regan Hood is second with 164 (.251).

Georgia is coming off a 3-0 loss to Arkansas on Friday. Georgia coach Mary Buczek was pleased with her team's performance and said the final result didn't indicate the closeness of the match. ''It came down to a serving and passing game and we lost that. We made more unforced errors than they did,'' Buczek said. ''I think this gives us all of the confidence in the world going into some of the other competition. If we play this hard, this well, we beat LSU. But they have to be able to sustain that and go back to back on these weekends.'' Buczek said Friday that sophomore outside hitter Jennie Metz, who miss the Arkansas match with a sprained ankle, would be questionable for the LSU match.

This is an important match for Georgia if it wants to finish in the top half of the SEC. Georgia entered the weekend with a two-game lead over Tennessee in the SEC's Eastern Division. The Bulldogs will play Tennessee again and still have to play South Carolina and Kentucky (twice), Florida, Auburn and Alabama. The top eight teams qualify for the SEC tournament in Fayetteville, Ark., on Nov. 22-24.
